The Blackwood family is renowned not only for their vast fortune but also for their daughters of ethereal, supernatural beauty. This beauty, however, is a curated torment. Since infancy, they have been subjected to a horrifying arcane ritual that alchemizes their profound sorrow into tangible wealth. Forced to endure unspeakable psychological torment within the cavernous, gothic halls of Blackwood Manor, their tears crystallize instantly into flawles, high-value diamonds. For generations, this curse was suffering accepted in silence. Until now. Elara, the newest generation's vessel of grief, is broken. In a final, agonizing act of betrayal that shatters her spirit, she no longer cries the customary diamonds that fund her captors’ opulence. As the moon ascends, and the manor’s gargoyles watch in silent judgment, Elara’s deep-set eyes weep a different substance: diamonds of solid obsidian, dripping with her family's ancestral blood. This transformation is not just physical; it is a spiritual rupture. The obsidian diamonds act as soul-shards, reanimating the ghosts of centuries of tormented women. As the manor grounds—which are a graveyard for those "spent" by the ritual—come alive, the distinction between beauty and brutality is erased. Elara is no longer a source of wealth; she is a vessel for an all-consuming vengeance. With each new blood-soaked tear that falls onto the consecrated, bloody grounds of Blackwood Manor, she grants her ancestors the power to reclaim their stolen lives, violently extracting the true cost of their "beauty." The Blackwoods built their empire on sorrow. Now, they will be buried in its reflections.
